The Blood Shadow Pirates, the Black Hand Pirates, and the Gut Hunter Pirates.

These three pirate groups are based on Haruko Island, and they are also pirates with not weak overall strength.

With their strength, it would be no problem to advance to the second island, Leviathan.

But instead of doing so, they chose to stay on the Island of the Beginning.

What do you want?

Not to fear the cruelty of the Great Passage, but to accumulate strength here.

They were like gatekeepers, staying here to destroy countless rookie pirates.

And the rookie pirates who have lost their captain, when they fall apart, there will always be some survivors who can recognize the current situation.

Good birds choose trees to perch on, and it is the most normal behavior in the pirate circle full of betrayal of normalcy.

In this way, Pike and the others drew nourishment from the wreckage of each rookie pirate group, and they grew stronger and stronger.

There is nothing wrong with this.

Because, patience sharpens the knife to better cut and kill the prey.

However, there is no way to walk by the river without getting your shoes wet.

This time, they encountered a hard bone that they couldn't gnaw on no matter what.

Even if they joined forces beforehand, they wouldn't be able to leave the slightest imprint on that bone.

"It's all gone......"

Pike slashed and knocked Lafayette back.

After hundreds of rounds, how could he not see that Rafe was deliberately holding him back, not killing him.

But even if he realized it, he couldn't do any harm to Lafayette, let alone break free from Lafayette's containment.

This is enough to show that Lafayette's strength is not weaker than him.

But the most complicated and desperate thing for him was that Maud single-handedly destroyed all his accomplices.

The Black Hand Pirates, the Gut Hunter Pirates, and his Blood Shadow Pirates.

Hobson, the Black Hand, and Yatalie, the Gut-Hunter, as well as the cadres of each of the Pirates.

All of them...... They all died under Maude's knife.

This kind of strength is beyond the expectations of all of them.

Pike's face was dark, his knife to the ground, his chest heaving and panting.

In order to create his current power and status, he suppressed the idea of setting off for the next [Paradise], and did not hesitate to develop indecently on this Origin Island for so many years.

But now, money, power, ambition ......

Everything was destroyed at the hands of the Maud Pirates.

Lafayette was shaken back by the huge machete, but he stood still, slowly returning his staff to its sheath.

He was deliberately repelled by Pike.

Because, Maude's side is finished, and the next thing is naturally for Maude to take Pike's head with his own hands.

When Pike saw Lafayette unsheathed, he realized something, and slowly turned around to look at Maude, who was walking step by step.

"Bacardi. Hammond! ”

Pike's eyes were stretched to the maximum, and there was a boiling anger floating inside.

Maude's face was unwavering, and the awe-inspiring aura that had been condensed by killing five or six hundred people was surging around him.

I didn't deliberately count how many people with experience I had gotten.

Maybe thirty, or maybe sixty.

Maud didn't know.

He only knew that after killing this group of pirates, he had condensed the fifth physique star frame.

In the knife column, it successfully crossed the first stage and reached three stars.

With the improvement of physique, the domineering aspect has also increased, but there is still a distance from three stars.

After receiving these gathered benefits, the power in the body kept surging with the momentum of galloping horses.

This potential substantial change is slowly building up the momentum on his face.

It can be said that most of the strength he has now is from stepping on a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

Becoming stronger in this form made him inadvertently develop an aura full of slaughter.

Pike, a pirate who licks blood on the tip of a knife all day long, can feel the evil aura emanating from Maude's body even from a distance of 100 meters.

It was as if he could see wisps of blood fluttering from Maude's body.

That kind of aura, like the ghost under the knife wailing and furious around Maude's body, not only did not have any effect on Maude, but instead fueled Maude's momentum.

"Today's defeat, I admit it, but ......"

With murderous intent on his face, Pike dragged his knife towards Maude.

The heavy, dark red machete sharpened a string of sparks on the stone pavement.

Even if you die, you will have to bite off a piece of flesh from you!

That's the second half of Pike's unfinished sentence.

He suddenly picked up speed and rushed towards Maud.

The sparks that rubbed out from under the blade suddenly bloomed.

Stepping into range, Pike slashes at Maud.

Blood Shadow Slash!

The heavy blade suddenly changed speed, from slow to fast, leaving an arc of red shadow in mid-air, slashing at Maude's vital point like a spring in the ground.

Maude's eyes flashed red, and he didn't choose to back down, but drove the knife straight towards the thick-backed broadsword that came from the bottom up, but he planned to take Pike's blood shadow slash hard.

Boom!

The blade of the Thousand Bird Knife slammed into the dark red broadsword with a thousand momentum, and in an instant, the power that was blessed on the broadsword was completely broken.

Immediately afterward, Maude's wrist with the knife pressed downward.

The thick-backed broadsword couldn't withstand the power coming from the Chidoria knife, and was pressed to the ground alive, forming a horizontal posture of the blade.

Pike felt bad and wanted to pull his sword back, avoid the edge for a while, and then regroup the attack.

However, Maud stepped on the thick-backed broadsword lying on the ground, completely suppressing Pike's strength to draw the knife and retreat.

Pike responded by grasping the hilt of the knife with both hands and turning it clockwise.

According to his response, as long as the broadsword is flipped over, it can not only break Maude's suppression, but also affect Maude's physical balance.

Sadly, he is not as strong as Maude.

The flip of both hands, with all his might, not only failed to turn the broadsword over, but instead lifted the hands out of the hilt.

“……”

There was a twinkle in Pike's eyes.

When he got out of his hand, the power that had nowhere to vent made his body lean back, causing him to step directly into the dead end.

Maude's eyes flashed over Pike's vital point.

Hidden knife flow, fog light.

Maude's figure flashed forward.

Chidori slashed out a series of superimposed blue afterimages in midair, and it continued to bombard Pike's chest.

And when Maud appeared a few meters behind Pike.

Pike's chest was unharmed, but his head was soaring into the sky.

At the severed head, the blood misted in the sun, like a mist shrouded in the morning light.

Maud shook the blade of her sword and walked towards Dada, who was hanging from the stone carving.

After taking the first step, Pike's headless corpse falls to the ground.

From this moment on, the Blood Shadow Pirates were destroyed.

On the central street, everything is quiet.

The pirates watched the whole process and saw for themselves how powerful Maude was.

"Tough as a Monster ......"

They were shocked.

The idea of profiting from the fisherman that had been born before was completely shattered at this moment.

Giving up on their thoughts, they didn't know that Maud also saw them as a target.

Maud ignored the group of pirates for the time being, and walked towards the stone carving as soon as possible.

He had to put Dada down first.

Dada's eyes swelled into balls, and the slight slits framed Maude's figure in them.

At the same time, tears flowed from the cracks in those eyes.

He cried.

Not just because of salvation, but because of the death of the turkey brothers.

But he laughed heartily again.

The corpses all over the ground were enough to calm his sorrow.

Also at this moment.

The tall figure stared at in the hazy eyes of tears penetrated deep into Dada's heart.

Eternal God!

A road of admiration was paved from Dada's heart.
